New Wireless Blood Pressure Wrist Monitor by iHealth

iHealth, a company that develops mobile personal healthcare products, is now making available its new wireless blood pressure wrist monitor.The device attaches at the wrist using a small cuff and uses the oscillometric principle to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure, as well as pulse rate. The wrist monitor also has motion sensors to detect the optimal wrist position to help users accurately take their blood pressure readings. It received both FDA clearance in U.S. as well as CE Mark approval in Europe.

The monitor works with the free iHealth MyVitals mobile app that has tools to help individuals not only measure and track blood pressure readings, heart rate, pulse wave and measurement time, but also to create dynamic charts to track progress and compare their results against historical averages, as well as World Health Organization (WHO) classifications. Results can also be instantly shared with doctors, without the need for a doctor visit. This product is a great example of how mobile technology can simplify healthcare delivery, get users to play a more active role in their well being, and help reduce the costs involved.
